Recently, though I have gathered enough materials to make some pasta with sauce and cheese. :)
Let's see what I got:
Here (in this really bad picture) I have my pasta noodles, closest thing to a cheese grader, and cheese! The cheese cost about $5 due to it being on sale.
Cooking the noodles is easy and allows you to walk away and check your blog.The results:
YUmmm! Or at least I think it looks yummy, it certainly tastes yummy. Sorry for the blurry picture.Anyways sorry if it seems I am obsessed with finding and cooking food that is familiar to me. I think that this may be natural for an expat. I recall foreigners in America sticking to their homely diets, although they were in the land of inexpensive cheese and milk. But I think what is most interesting is that there is ought to be an fusion of homely and the unfamiliar when it comes to eating here. I try to taste something new and see if I like it.
All right well thanks for reading!
That does indeed look extremely tasty. I don't know how long I will be in my hotel so I hesitate to buy food to cook although I do have dishes and cookware

How about a nice little salad on the side....you could grow your own alfalfa sprouts in a jar..... have you ever done that or seen it done?.....& probably some type of greens on your window ledge!

Make yourself some of Mom's "tastey tofu" for which you need an onion, green and/or red peppers, zucchini, tofu, garlic, herbamare !, actually I've been using Trocamare for yrs, it's a bit more zesty, some oil for the pan (i like olive oil), basil, tamari & tumeric (makes it tastey & yellow)! Good w/brown rice or ww pita pockets. Jave u seen pita pocket bread there?
ReplyDeleteYUM!
